DHCP clients can neither request nor suggest a specific IP address, so
they don't "try to get" anything. It's just the DHCP server giving out
the previous IP to the same client, either by chance or because the
existing lease hasn't expired yet.

Then you're basically out of luck. Since you have few devices and
those
devices are under your control, just forget about DHCP and configure
them statically.
Thanks!
But I get the nameserver of DHCP, as well. Can this be fetched from
DHCP since this may change?
From man dhclient
A DHCP client may request an address from this pool, and then
use it on a temporary basis for communication on network
I've just not found out howto.
